See if the lifter rises the same as the others. If not, the cam is done! :cry:
That works great to bleed clutch cylinders too! :thumbsup:
Make sure the pushrod was installed from the old one to the new one. I've seen cases before where this part was forgotten! :)
Glad you found the problem! :thumbs2: Even the smallest air leak will mess you up! As far as your carb goes (I have a 250, I now see you have a...
I had this issue awhile back and it was the fuel pump. Now I still have to crank mine a couple of turns to prime the carb if the car has set for a...
Wouldn't hurt to check and make sure the nuts are tight! I've had loose torque converters make many kinds of sounds. Some from a light ticking to...
As a fan of "old and cheesy B movies", I can't believe I haven't seen that one! At first I thought you were talking about "The Core", which...
Hey, it's coming along! A 250 has 4 water pump bolts (sure fire way to tell). Remember to put your car back on it's wheels before you tighten up...
Mine gets that (250 with C4 trans). I only use alcohol free 89 octane, though. I know alcohol gas will be worse, and worse for the entire fuel...
First thing, I would replace the coil wire. If it gets wet and the car won't run, it's definitely bad. If your budget will go for it, get the...

I still have my drum brakes. They're not power. The only thing I have had to do is to adjust them manually. The "self adjusters" don't work well....
The place where I take scrap has you on video cameras, takes a fingerprint, and you must present a photo ID or they won't take your stuff! That...
Make sure you keep the accessory spacers! I had a 250 out of a 76 Granada and the mountings on the block for the AC and power steering pump do not...
I have three pairs of vise grips that I found over the years, holding various things together on vehicles! These are "real" vise grips too! :thumbs2:
The earlier base will work fine! You may need to put in a nipple for your PCV valve if it doesn't have one. The hose for the PCV must connect to a...
To be honest, I like the 4 dr hardtops of the 60's and 70's. I used to have a 56 Olds Holiday 4 dr hardtop that (in my opinion) was a cool looking...
May not be related, but I had a Ford Super Duty that the clutch cable mounting on the firewall actually pulled through the firewall! Ford offered...
You lucked out! :thumbsup: When mine did that, the whole tread came off and tore the fender and part of the rocker area up! + mine went flat so It...
Yep, they're usually the ones that won't come off of anything! I know! I am one too! :rl:
